“The pancakes were absolutely incredible, honestly some of the best I’ve ever had. Super fluffy, delicious, and definitely worth the wait. The place was really busy so we waited quite a while for our pancakes, but once the food arrived, we completely forgot about the wait because they were THAT good. There was also an issue with the card machine and I accidentally got charged twice, but the guy helping us was genuinely so kind and caring. He spent a lot of time checking everything for me and even offered to give me the manager’s number to make sure it got sorted properly. Such a warm, lovely person and amazing customer service, especially during such a busy time. Really lovely atmosphere, amazing food, and genuinely sweet staff, would happily go back again.”
